Weed-Species Abundance and Diversity Indices in Relation to Tillage Systems and Fertilization (2018, background): “Blackshaw et al. (2005) confirmed that compost tends to contain relatively high numbers of weed seeds which can contribute to the soil seed bank.”
Effect of nitrogen rates and weed control methods on weeds abundance and yield of direct-seeded rice (2011, unknown): “Therefore, manipulation of crop fertilization is a promising agronomic practice in reducing weed interference in crops (Cathcart et al. 2004; Blackshaw et al. 2005).”
Factors and processes affecting plant biodiversity in permanent grasslands. A review (2011, unknown): “…to be a source of colonization depends on seed persistence in the soil, seed age, and soil conditions (mainly moisture content; ter Heerdt et al. 1999), on the depth of burial (Akinola et al. 1998) and on seed abundance (Blackshaw et al. 2005), modulated by seed predation (Martinkova et al. 2009b).”
